Came across this roaster & wanted to share Rair Systems Inc., Northbrook, Ill., introduces the Aerabica 2000R, a patented, countertop air roaster for conveniently converting green coffee into fresh coffee in small batches without expensive installations, operating costs. The Aerabica 2000R requires only 120-volt service and no exhaust system This is all I can find out about it in my internet searches that was prompted by this photo Just thought I would post it up for discussion and to see if my US Home Roaster friends could shed some more light on its inner workings, bean roasting capacity & price range ?

"The machine is only about 14" wide and about the same size as a microwave oven. It plugs directly into a standard electrical outlet, and with the attachment of a dryer-type exhaust hose, you're ready to roast. Batch size of the Aerabica is 1 lb. to 3.5 lbs., with roasting times varying from 9 minutes to 26. The machine can roast up to 10 pounds per hour. The beans are roasted in a stainless steelstainless steel. drum which has a built-in chaff collector. Hot air is circulated through the drum while it revolves, by a 2000 watt electric heater. There is a small door built into the machine so coffee can be checked for color." From http://www.thefre...a014507112 Excellent find. Too bad the info is so sketchy - wonder if it's actually in production? Found a few references to sales on eBay. It's pretty much what I wanted to build. Think: 3.5lbs roasted on a 2000W element? I'd love to know how that's possible! Especially when the patent repeatedly suggests the operating temperature won't go over 500F. http://www.freepa...temming=on You may have to register at freepatentsonline to see the info.
